Thrombosis after varicose vein operation?

summary

Varicose veins refer to the tortuous and dilated veins caused by blood stasis, weak venous wall and other factors. Varicose veins can occur in many parts of the body, varicose veins most often occur in the lower limbs. After varicose vein operation, if heparin is not used, the blood flow of lower extremity vein is slow, the blood is in hypercoagulable state, silting up in lower extremity vein, forming thrombosis. If acute venous thrombosis of lower extremity is not diagnosed and treated in time, some patients may have pulmonary embolism due to thrombus shedding. What does thrombosis symptom have after varicose vein operation? Now let me talk about it

Thrombosis after varicose vein operation?

One of the symptoms of lower extremity venous thrombosis: the development degree of swelling of the affected limb must be accurately measured by tape measure and compared with the thickness of the lower limb of the healthy side. It is not reliable to rely on naked eye observation alone. This syndrome is of high value in the diagnosis of DVT. When the leg swells seriously, the tissue tension is often increased.

The second symptom of lower extremity venous thrombosis: tenderness. The site of venous thrombosis often has tenderness. Therefore, the lower limbs should be examined for calf muscle, popliteal fossa, adductor canal and femoral vein below inguinal.

The third symptom of lower extremity venous thrombosis: when Homans bends his foot sharply to the dorsal side, it can cause deep pain of leg muscles. In the case of deep venous thrombosis of the leg, Homans sign is often positive. This is caused by the stimulation of thrombosis veins in the leg when the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles are passively elongated. Deep vein occlusion can cause the increase of superficial venous pressure. Homans sign is straight leg ankle extension test. That is straight leg ankle extension test. During the examination, the patient was instructed to straighten the lower limbs and bend the ankle joint dorsally, because the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles were passively elongated and stimulated the diseased veins in the leg muscles, causing deep pain in the leg muscles, which was positive, indicating deep venous thrombosis of the leg.
